Whether it's reincarnation chakra or other speculations, all of it is just Kiyoshi's deduction.
To know the specifics, constant experimentation and exploration in the future is required.
"To awaken the Rinnegan, I need to gather these two types of chakra." Kiyoshi pondered slightly.
With his extreme speed, he had already returned to the place he had just left from.
Asuma was covered in cuts and bruises, apparently having taken several hits to protect Kurenai.
Kurenai had no visible injuries, but her face showed exhaustion, clearly from overuse of genjutsu.
"!"
Baki turned his head abruptly, discovering that Kiyoshi had appeared behind him unnoticed.
Since Kiyoshi had appeared here, it meant that Pakura... had lost.
"I need to punish those who dare to harm Kurenai."
Kiyoshi resolutely drew his sword, the fiery trail slicing through the air.
Baki's expression under the white mask changed drastically, and he quickly gathered chakra to form hand seals.
He could sense that Kiyoshi was different from before.
Those dark eyes were like captivating abysses.
He didn't dare to look again, fearing he would fall under a genjutsu.
Just as Kiyoshi's sword was about to strike, Baki's fingertips emitted sharp blades made of chakra.
Then, a gust of wind attacked Kiyoshi.
"No one can stop the formless wind blades!"
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Baki's eyes as he watched Kiyoshi's sword.
The invisible wind blade quickly slashed over.
Wind Release: Wind Blade!
"The chakra you scattered in the air is as obvious as fireflies in the night."
A hint of scarlet appeared in Kiyoshi's eyes.
Then he slightly adjusted his position, dodging the wind blade.
The momentum of the sword in his hand did not diminish as he slashed down at Baki.
Crack!
The sword struck the thick ninja vest, but the attached flames increased the temperature of the sword, allowing Kiyoshi to cut through it like butter.
Baki rolled a few times on the ground in a sorry state, saying.
"Run!"
Baki's figure flashed as he quickly threw out a scroll, attempting to seize a chance of survival, and then fled into the distance.
Seeing Baki defeated in one move, Suzuki's eyelids twitched, and he hurriedly ran away in a panic.
"The Earth Scroll, not bad luck."
Kiyoshi caught the scroll Baki had thrown into the air.
There was no point in pursuing him at this time.
If Kiyoshi wanted to make them stay, he would have definitely chased them.
Because the finish line was the tower in the very center, and they had to pass through there to pass the second exam.
"Hey, Kiyoshi, what did you mean by 'I need to punish those who dare to harm Kurenai'?"
After Suzuki, who was fighting him, run away, Asuma immediately spoke.
Even he hadn't said such a boastful line in front of Kurenai.
No, he should have said it at the very beginning.
Asuma's mood at this time was one of regretting not knowing the answer in the exam hall.
Now that the exam was over, he finally knew what he should have done but it was too late now.
"...Huff"
Kurenai bent down. She still looked cute even when panting, her lips exhaling some heat.
After a while, she stood up and said, "Kiyoshi was protecting his teammates, us. Otherwise it would have been difficult for us to even survive just now."
Kurenai's red eyes looked at Kiyoshi.
She was curious about how Kiyoshi had defeated Pakura and come here.
And Kiyoshi even still had the strength to defeat Baki.
Hearing this, Asuma also reacted.
When did Kiyoshi pull so far ahead of him without him realizing it?
Had their strength already diverged this much?
Asuma clenched his fist.
Indeed, only the strong are qualified to say words of protecting others.
If someone like him had said similar words, it would be considered bragging.
Asuma had never felt such urgency as he did at this moment.
He wanted to become stronger, he wanted to train harder.
Only then can he protect his dearest Kurenai.
Kiyoshi saw Asuma lower his head for no reason and clench his hands, ignoring him.
He said to Kurenai, "The scroll Baki left behind is enough for us to complete the requirements to pass this exam."
Kiyoshi waved the scroll.
"Great, are we going to hand in the scroll now?" Kurenai asked.
Kiyoshi said, "No hurry. There must be people lying in wait for teams that have obtained scrolls."
"That makes sense." Kurenai nodded.
Kiyoshi was right. If they are ambushed halfway, it will be troublesome.
It's better to let other teams test the waters first.
Anyway, there are still four days left. They have already gotten the scrolls in one day, so there's no rush at all.
Kiyoshi handed the newly obtained Earth Scroll to Kurenai for safekeeping.
As for worrying about being attacked?
Kiyoshi was just making excuses.
His purpose had not been fully achieved yet, so there was no need to leave like this.
Besides, Natsu's issue had not been resolved yet.
Kiyoshi wanted to have further contact with her, so as to get in touch with the Hyuga clan.
After all, he needs to give them a reason to contact him.
Everything starts with such small beginnings.
Anyway, Kiyoshi was a patient person.
Asuma asked, "By the way, why were they so ruthless? Aren't we allies?"
Asuma didn't ponder for long, and the severe pain on his body interrupted his thoughts.
Konoha and Sunagakure are allies!
"Asuma, alliances are meant to be broken."
Kiyoshi threw a strip of bandage to Asuma and said.
He had gotten a lot of these things from the hospital.
Nono was worried about him getting hurt and had given Kiyoshi many good things.
Kiyoshi felt that this was the treatment of a favourite disciple.
The first disciple generally has different treatment.
Also, Nono is a truly loving woman who can even be called a saint.
"What do you mean?"
Asuma did not understand the meaning of Kiyoshi's words.
Kiyoshi began to fill in their history, saying, "When the Five Kage were first born, Sunagakure and Konohagakure had made a secret agreement to obtain fertile land and survive."
"After that, Sunagakure, located in the south, had always coveted the more fertile land in Konohagakure in the north."
This statement may make people feel that Sunagakure is unilaterally invading Konoha.
But this world is not so simple. It's not black and white. In fact, it's gray.
Konoha, where Kiyoshi and the others were located, has also carried out various actions against Sunagakure.
Over the years, although the two villages have maintained an alliance on the surface, the atmosphere between them has always been tense.
"So that's what an alliance is..."
Asuma was exposed to the dark side of the ninja world for the first time.
Konoha, which he was so proud of, was actually the same. He couldn't help but feel disillusioned.
"No, Konoha is doing this for everyone. Konoha is trying to resist Sunagakure who are coveting our land, that's why they interfere."
Soon, Asuma, deeply affected by the Will of Fire, automatically whitewashed Konoha.
Seeing this, Kiyoshi slightly shook his head.
Why is Amegakure, sandwiched between three great powers, so chaotic?
Isn't it because the forces of various countries have deeply infiltrated, all wanting to control Amegakure?
Amegakure has become a battleground and war buffer zone between great powers.
Even Konoha ninjas tacitly fight in Amegakure, rather than in the territory of the Land of Fire.
